For half-breed succubus Ava Hawley, hunting supernatural foes is worth all the risks and rewards. But when a wolf shifter is responsible for kidnapping her sister, the mission becomes personal. Ava is ordered to track down the bad boy and turn him over to her boss. That is, until she meets the dangerously sexy shifter and realizes her charm—the kiss of death—is no match for the charms of her opponent.

Alpha werewolf Killian Reid is on the run from a demon mistress, but someone else is on his tail—a stunning seductress with more sex appeal than any woman ought to have. And Killian can’t resist her. Proving his innocence will be a challenge, but with every moment that he spends with her, Ava’s self-control weakens. And as their attraction grows, she knows she’ll have to rely on the shifter she’d been sent to capture, or they’ll both become victims to another predator…

Excerpt:

Ava reached out for Killian’s hand and pulled him to the side. The movement to touch him was instinctual. “I can’t let you risk it alone. This is my battle too.”

“We don’t have time, love.” He took hold of her chin, running his thumb over her bottom lip. Not giving it too much thought—and because she wanted to—she thrust her tongue out and licked him. The taste of mornings in spring and mint burst into her mouth. She gasped softly and his eyes darkened. “Save it,” he growled low. “I know what you’re trying to do.”

Her gaze lowered. Defeated.

“We’ll talk later when this is all over.” He leaned forward, leveling his eyes with hers. “The part about us.”

“Won’t happen if we go with your plan.”

“It’s the only way to gain access into the estate.”

“What if it doesn’t work?” Concern spiraled in her gut.

“We won’t know if we don’t try.”

She couldn’t help but wonder if he was referring to them again. The thought of them together had crossed her mind a couple of times, but she couldn’t envision being with the wolf. A possessive shifter was dangerous all around. The man’s aura radiated nothing but danger and violence. The telltale hint of darkness and dominance gave it away. Besides, wolf shifters mated for life and Ava didn’t know if she was ready for that.
